Middle East Politics and Humanitarian Issues

The government in Türkiye,

one has to be realistic, has no animosity towards the Israeli

regime.

They are willing to help the Saudis

kill the besieged people of Yemen, but they're not willing to help the people

of

Gaza. The same is true with Egypt. They control the

border of Gaza, and they allowed the

Sisi, President Sisi, allowed

the Israelis to impose a starvation siege on Gaza

for so long. And people across the world were begging

the Egyptian government to open

the gates to Gaza,

and he refused. Yet he's willing to help

with the war against the people of Yemen, a war that

he and Erdogan and others

assisted from the very beginning

with the Saudi genocidal attack on that country

in 2015.

These countries were all on board with the assault on Yemen, and they

were supportive of the genocide

in that country.

Of course, after Saudi Arabia imposed a blockade

or a siege on Qatar, Türkiye and Qatar tilted

away. But until then, there was a universal

consensus.

So

one shouldn't be naive. The empire

has its representatives, and the burden of the empire is on the

shoulders of those allies. We saw Trump say

that he would like to see Erdogan help with

Saudi Arabia. And there's no doubt that in the case of

Egypt, there is a

direct communication with the United States.

And of course, there is nothing that any of these entities will do for

Gaza. We recall

how these countries all forced

Hamas to accept an unfair ceasefire,

and then they went to Egypt, their leaders, and praised

Trump for that fake ceasefire.
